It doesn’t matter if you’ve been using “natural” (what the salesman says) fertilisers or “safe” weedicides or pesticides.
When you are using any form of chemical inputs you are destroying the biology (life) in your soil. You will see instant growth when you apply these inputs and when you try stop – pests come in, weeds grow dramatically, and so you have to keep using and using and you become addicted. And this is not only bad for the soil, but also bad for the business.
As you’re quickly finding out, fertilisers and chemical inputs cost higher and higher each year. As a farmer, you have no control over the market price or the rain or the law or even your produce yields, but there’s something that you can control… your soil. Let’s make your soil healthy again!
But hey, how would you suppose to take care of the soil if you’re not going to use fertilisers? No one in the neighborhood who doesn’t use fertilisers!
Errrm… nope. That’s why you need the right support and coaching community. Even over Zoom we can easily come together now in 2020!
The Regen Roadmap Program is a platform for like-minded farmers who believes that farming with nature is the best way of farming. Thousands of farmers are already doing these around the world. And they were at the position where you at right now. You will encounter problems along the way but it won’t be hard, you’ll get help when you have the right people who are with you on this journey.
Sounds intense but this is what is happening.
With the years of experience working with Farming Secrets and with Helen and Hugo. Their decades of knowledge around regenerative farming and natural farming, moving away from chemical inputs – it became quite clear to me that everyone who is doing agriculture in a way that is not regeneratively, or biodynamic, or permaculture, or whatever the style of farming that has to do with chemical inputs is harming the soil, the biology, the food, health human and even mental health. We’ve seen so much evidence of this recently.
It’s affecting the animals, the food, humans including you, and the planet.
The whole system is messed up! (I wanted to use another word there…)
It’s by no fault of yours – it’s the way that the “old school” system was created from natural evolution and industrial agriculture just took its path and here we are.
The good news is there is still something we can do, to a brighter future for everyone and for the planet.
We can all change the world to a brighter future, one farmer, at a time.
It’s time to draw the line in the soil and switch to the “new school” of farming
Let’s make regenerative agriculture the new normal method of growing great yields.
Regenerative agriculture is becoming a hot topic right now. We’re seeing documentaries being created for it, you’ll find thousands of information on youtube and on the internet is talking about it.
Big-name of celebrities and scientists working on journaling and releasing peer-reviewed studies on how soil works. And when we start to understand the very basics of farming and growing food, it almost a no-brainer because this is the way nature designed the system to work.
The classic example is the rainforest there is no one out there throwing chemicals, no one is tilling the soil, disturbing the ecosystem, it just naturally thrives on its own system. Our food can come from that same system… It’s healthier, it tastier, and it’s so much easy to grow food this way.
But… I hear you say!
You don’t know how to start?
You’re probably be saying this because this is the way how you’ve done farming for generations. And change is scary & daunting for people and that’s what’s great about Farming Secrets. You’ll get the support you need and know that you are not doing this alone.
Just imagine, farming without using fertilisers, pesticides, weedicides… save money and still getting the same (or higher) yields. Is that not the dream farm you always wanted?
Your soil becomes healthier and healthier, thus your produce becomes higher and higher each year… and that’s “regenerative ag“. It’s not just sustainable, it regenerates, it grows.
Do you want to be know as a regenerative farmer? Well it can start today… You need to start by knowing your goal and guided in the right direction. You will go through our Farming Secrets On-Boarding Program, where we will learn (together) where you at your farming business and your future… what does success look like for you, and how we can help you to get you there in the fast lane.
Then, you will have access to hundreds of our farm tours where we film other farmers who have been successful in regenerative farming AND who are also in the “roadmap” phase, how they deal with problems using nature’s solutions.
You will also get access to fortnightly Virtual Regen Classrooms, where the community can talk about their challenges, ideas and soil-utions!
It only takes one individual to change our thinking. This is how Farming Secrets can help you. Hearing success stories of farmers and whatever success means to you.
If you’re sick of going from yield to yield broke, same money in and money out, mortgage repayment to mortgage repayment. If you’re sick of living a life where you’re stuck and held in a system and feel that there’s no other way.
Well, I’m here to share with you today that there is another way – a better way. It’s a new beginning. It’s a fresh start. It’s a new lease on life it’s about changing the farm between your ears. It’s about investing in yourself and the future of your farming business, our food system and the future of our currently sick planet and most important for future generations that you won’t even meet.
Our ancestors, our first nation utilized every aspect of our planet in a positive way they looked at observing the land, the sun patterns, the water patterns, the rivers which where the veins of life and to be frank, humans have gotten in the bloody way. We’ve complicated it, we thought we were smarter than nature, but we’re not.
We've got to let the system do its thing. So Farming Secrets has been working really hard to think about what can we do to help. What can we do to fast track this success of your journey - to fast track your learning to regenerative farming to a more natural way of farming where we don't rely on synthetic inputs and chemicals and you know killing the biology of our soil.
We only have 30 harvests left before our soil becomes dust.
Research says that we only have about 30 cycles of yields left in the soil. The way that they’re being degraded, the way that water takes the topsoil away. The carbon, organic matter in soil has just been degraded – if we don’t start changing. That will be our future, that will be the future of our children.
But there is a way to rebuild that and bounce back – fast. Many farmers who are doing regenerative agriculture have realized that building soil happens a lot quicker than what everyone thought to happen. When the system is correct it just magically grows. So that’s why Farming Secrets has been putting together behind the scenes this “Regen Roadmap Program”.
This is a shift in your mindset.
The reason why we put this together as a “roadmap” is because we know that moving regeneratively is a mindset shift of stages. It’s not about how to till or no-till or cover cropping – there is a lot of information online. You know as a farmer what you should be doing just as we as individuals know that we need to be more healthy eating and go to the gym but we don’t do it because it’s a mindset. The priorities are wrong.
And that’s why the Regen Roadmap Program is the solution for you.
Not only will we hold your hand through the process of going through this transformation but we are going to be that support that takes you through different ways of thinking get experts from all around the world to come and share their story. Share what worked for them. Inspire you to think differently to learn new ways of living. To appreciate and be grateful for what has happened on your farm today and know that it is a journey.
The Regen Roadmap™ is a support program – it’s a community of like-minded farmers, home growers and food eaters all going through the same thing from all around the world.
Technology has enabled us to connect in a way that has never been possible.
There has never been a better time!
(well maybe 100 years ago)
There are documentaries about soil helath and the biology and the life that exists below our feet. Showing us all the magic that can happen when we work with nature.
So the time is… NOW
There’s never been a great time to start learning and discovering a better and easier way of farming your farm. And it may be a hobby farm, it may be a lifestyle farm, it may be a big commercial farm. It doesn’t matter. Even what climate you have does not matter or where you’re in the world you live.
The great news is that soil works the same globally!
I’ve been seeing this first hand behind the scenes speaking to mentors who have been ahead of their time, innovating and pioneering this way of farming. What Farming Secrets recorded 10 years ago, is just as groundbreaking then as it is today.
Why have we waited so long to wake up and do something about it?
I love it when I meet someone who says “I want to be a regenerative farmer”.
That is exactly what the world needs.
Don’t get confused and stuck with the how’s ,what’s, where’s and when – just commit that you want to be a regenerative farmer.
Because at the end of the day we need community, we all need support. You need your tribe the village that you hang out with that’s going to take care of you. And with the technology we have, it doesn’t matter where you are in the world, we can and we will be that support for you.
We all jump in a zoom meeting once a fortnight and help each other get unstuck, share our wins and what we need help with. We also have special guests join.
If you can not make the zoom live you can catch the replay. Plus all past calls are archived in the members website for you to watch and discover past converations.
Get access to support and mentors to help you along your regen journey. We want you to succeed and will do everything we need to get you there. With more successful farmers doing regen ag the more the world will repair and heal.
Plus access to a private members only Facebook group we call the Fence Post so you can have a yarn with your new virtual neighbours who get what Regen Ag is all about! It's our safe space!
